           ^Do believers want evidence and proof?-- Absolutely! I was refering to the attitude among atheists. They insist that because we haven't met THEIR standards of proof, theism can have no practical application.

           "...never cross the road again?"-- I was thinking that the bus represented our inevitable deaths (if Jesus doesn't come soon.) Leaving the road would mean abandoning anything that the Deity would likely find unacceptable.

          "...Freely complying with destroyer."--  One should never comply with an evil destroyer. Well, unless the compliance is in a lesser matter in preparation for a soon strike for greater effect. One should accept the consequences of refusal.

          Some "believers" are suicide bombers?--  Yes, but this argument is a bit like insisting that nobody should eat fruits and vegetables, as well as rejecting stones, dirt, and poison ivey. You should carefully select what is good for food.

          ME regimes and Hitler?-- The "great" totalitarian powers were "essentially" atheist. Hitler was a proud atheist with occasional satanic occult dabblings and plenty of nods to his "Catholic" Jesuit pals.

          New religion or one we already have?-- I favor jettisoning EVERYTHING the Roman/Babylon state church has imposed, together with those doctrines that the great Protestant churches have insisted on retaining. We should read the NT CAREFULLY and IN CONTEXT. Most people would be surprised to finally discover Christianity.

          Knowingly created rebellious than why blame them.--   Here I must rely upon my pathetically limited human perspective.  It seems to me that a being with a "God's eye view", seeing past, present, and future SIMULTANEOUSLY, might be simultaneously LEARNING and KNOWING. If you know in advance that Jack is going to punch Dirk in the face for no good reason, Jack's character is not one bit improved by your foreknowledge.

         "Power corrupts...."-- The only way, at the end of the day, to escape Lord Acton's dictum is for the leaders to have a fearful and passionate devotion to True Law. If God cares nothing for Law, we are all ultimately lost.
